[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ranco100:
Hi,

After flashing to EhndroixII2.12.29-ROM.zip, using cwm.6025.t679v1.zip as my CWM recovery.

Now I have only GSM (Orange Israel). I can see that in Android Assistant --> Networks: Gsm.

as well as with the fact that the Network Icon shows G sometimes, nothing otherwise.

As a result, Internet / Google Play downloads are very slow - that's my "only" problem...

Advise anyone?

Thanks,

Ranco
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ranco100:
Anyone??
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
Orange probably uses different 3g wireless bands that this phone doesn't have.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ranco100:
Yea, it seems that way. Is there a way to hack through that?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
Do you have the same APN settings as the one on this website:

If yours are the same as that I don't know if there is anything else to try.

Homeflip keeps forceclosing on me. Im on a Galaxy Nexus. Never had this problem until now.

The eye candy effects are awesome by the way.

Edit. It always fc when i scroll to the top of the list.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Sorry to hear that,

Have you tried uninstall then re-install ?
[Android Apps and Games] ba_hamilton:
Apparently that was the issue. After deleting and reinstalling I'm not getting fc's anymore. Sorry for the false alarm :thumbup:

[Android Apps and Games] xysonata:
I'm now using this app as my default quick launcher. Because of this, I was able to remove all of the icons on my homescreen. Now my screen looks so spacious!

Now my Note 2's screen seems even bigger :)
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Not bad at all. Now to decide between a swipe controlled or a button-controlled interface. I sort of like Ubuntu's "chromeless" idea. Swipe from left to get apps, from right to step through running/cashed apps. There is an, unfortunately problematically implemented launcher overlay for the swipe from right idea.

Looking forward to new features in this:

1. Allow dragging apps from app-drawer to make them favorites.

2. Swipe-alternatives to button interface.

Taskarou, another one of these launcher overlays, gives on it own full app-drawer and icons for running apps.
[Android Apps and Games] .jan:
realy nice :)

but one thing:

nova launcher is set to open appdrawer on homebutton

i like to open HomeFlip with 2 times homebutton

when i activate this the normal press on homebutton for nova launcher does not work anymore

the option 1 press HomeFlip, 2 press launcher does not work right

Actually, you tell me :), try them both and post your pros and cons here, this could be interesting and help others to make an informed choice.
[Android Apps and Games] ksdlee:
You can set your Nova to open Homeflip on the first home press, and appdrawer on the 2nd home press under Nova's Gestures and Buttons. You'll need to set Homeflip to "manual" on Activation mode. I have mine set to open on Nova's Pinch Out gesture.

Also would it be possible to have the tabs to come from the left side instead?

HomeFlip only launch recents apps and favorites, if you don't have runnings apps or set favorites, there nothing to launch/show :) . Think alt-tab .
[Android Apps and Games] Hudrator:
Awesome. Works great on my hox with cm10 & ncx kernel.

My suggestions for improvement are:

1. Option to decide wether it opens on one tap OR doubletap

2. Some more themes

3. Option to choose between icons or the "live-preview" like the original
[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
Totaly good app :good:

I used to search for such an app and found wave launcher. But that one isn't free, and homeflip is an awesome taskswitch option.

Would suggest a "doublepress home" to open it, too, and insert a taskswitch animation.

It looks a bit dry, just switching to the other task without an animation.

I like it extremely much how it looks when switching tasks with wavelauncher.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Double click to activate is already available, go to Settings / Activation mode and select 'Twice'

As for eye candy, well this goes against the design of HomeFlip, but I understand the many of you guys enjoy these things , so I'll see what can be done on the 'impress your friends with your phone' front :)

Personally , I use my phone (Note 2) to work and as a productivity tool, so even a fade-out effect when switching task annoys me to no end!, my home screen is a wasteland of darkness with no life what so ever (no icons, no background, nothing). HomeFlip is my main mean of quickly switch from task to task.

Thanks for all the feedback and be ensured that it did not end up in deaf ears!

Side note: If any of you which to share custom themes, post here or pm me, and if you don't know how to make one, just download the template here , unzip it and express yourself :).

Any chance this will work with GB? I'm still using MIUI 1.12.9.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
No sorry, 4.0+ only. The current sdk is already crappy as it is, I don't want to deal with 2/3.0 . Btw, Google should wake up because developing for wp8 Is light years ahead of Android, switching start to be really tempting. ...
[Android Apps and Games] Dodgylegs:
Really great app. Definitely would be nice to have a bit of haptic in there to know it's launched. And smoother on launch too.

Really great start Champ. Awesome job. Love it.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Thanks.

I thought about haptic feedback, but it require yet another permission, +1 permission = -100 users ... :) Let see if this get required often.

As for smoother on launch, I try my best, but at some point, the only way to get faster if to start caching things in the background, currently when HomeFlip is not in foreground, all the resources it used are available for the system.
[Android Apps and Games] frenetic:
Is home-button activation a requirement? Will this launch from the app-drawer, if needed? Thinking of a launcher like LMT that allows swipe gestures to activate items, this could be used to swipe from the right side of the screen to activate your recents...

Also, Nvidia Tegra facebook page dropped the link to your app today. http://www.facebook.com/pages/NVIDIA-Tegra/450967871600930
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
HomeFlip activation mode can be set to manual or double home click.

Swipe to activate was requested often, its now on my to do list :)

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] frenetic:
I mean, do you need to set home-button action to activate this app?

Can you launch the GUI from your drawer?
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Sure, like any app, simply do not set it as default when asked or set activation mode to manual in the settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Dodgylegs:
Thanks for the reply. You're doing a really great job on an app that I didn't realise I needed but now can't do without! Fantastic work :)

Re my comment about smoothness. The app after it is launched is buttery smooth. Flawless on my HTC ONE X.

But I'm having concerns about the launching of it. Sometimes double tapping my home button fails to launch the app and my hidden notification bar appears then hides. Like its blinking. It works fine when setting it to one tap but I'm loathed to replace the home button in that way. So for me, double tapping is the only setting to go for unless you are thinking about launching the app by swiping from the side's in the way that GYF and Swipepad do?

But you're doing an amazing job. Thank you so much for your hard work.
[Android Apps and Games] nachomaster:
I made a video about the app if you wanna check it out, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6UA4AB1WlQ :)
[Android Apps and Games] b.huss2:
i really like it but having it attached to the home button has become sort of annoying. I could definitely go for launching it on recent apps button press, instead of the default recent apps event.
[Android Apps and Games] ZzFDKzZ:
Just installed on my Note 2, love this app so far.
[Android Apps and Games] Zhypr:
I like this app, now using it on double tap home. I just wish it could close applications instead of hide them.

[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
There's no need to close applications anymore, the memory and resources of an app that is not running is for, any practical purpose, free and up for grab by the system. Think of it as 'named' free memory, see here to details explanations.

Feedback welcome,

[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Actually, I was using SwipePad before I decided to develop HomeFlip, It didn't suit me for the following reasons:

- The swipe gesture works 99% of the time, which is great, but the 1% drove me insane.

- I moved to a Galaxy Note 2, the swipe gesture start to lose its appeal with a 5.5inch screen in one handed operations.

- 826 K... for a launcher...

- Permissions: DIRECTLY CALL PHONE NUMBERS, FULL NETWORK ACCESS, MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR USB STORAGE MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR SD CARD, CONTROL VIBRATION, VIEW NETWORK CONNECTIONS... Are these really necessary for an app launcher ??

As for the definition of 'poweruser', well perhaps I'm not one, but I use my phone every single day for work, very heavily, and for me, even a fade-in effect is a waste of time :), I need to switch from task to task fast and hard!

That being said, SwipePad is an excellent app and if I had not switched to a new phone, I would probably still be using it.

Thanks!

[Android Apps and Games] Ratlegion:
I know what you mean about that 99 percent. Didn't really annoy me until trying to use it on my Xoom, because no matter how large the pad was,it wouldn't trigger consistently. This would definitely be vastly superior for that purpose.

I am also using the Note II, and indeed, one handed operation is tough. Got around it, somewhat by just having my most used apps/actions in the left hand corner, though, but mostly the phone in general demands two hands. I do understand what you're saying however.

As for everything else you said, if you consider the vast amount of options and actions that SwipePad has over this, most of the permissions should be pretty obvious. Alternatively, if you really do distrust the app, you could just use Permissions DENIED. I don't know what fade in effect you're talking about, don't recall seeing it in the options. Even Directly Dial Phone numbers or Control Vibration didn't escape your criticism, so that tells me that you're not a poweruser, because you can't understand the vast reach of it's abilities. Turning off radios and utilizing widgets truly do need those permissions. If you weren't using any of them, I know why you can so easily give them up.

But the greatness of Android means that all of us are different, and it's okay to be different. I am more than pleased to use this app right alongside SwipePad, because honestly, there's nothing wrong with it. From my perspective, it can only make the best better.

EDIT

I didn't notice you were the dev. Thank you for your effort. Perhaps one day, I might join you and others who are out to make the ecosystem better by directly contributing. You are the reason why Android claims the glory it does. As for what I said about you not knowing the full range of SwipePad's capabilies, you're the dev - not me. I guess you would know whether those permissions were necessary or not, and I now assume they are not because of your stance. I've been satisfied, though.
[Android Apps and Games] billbowers:

Thanks a lot for this app. Compact mode is awesome.

An idea:Add an option to "keep in memory" for homeflip. maybe this option homeflip starts more faster. i saw this option in apex launcher, perhaps you can use it for homeflip.

[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
You making a good argument regarding permissions and I grant you that, for someone using all the features of SwipePad, each one of these permissions is indeed justified.

But I think I can make a case that far to often, (free) apps developers start with a good, useful and simple idea, SwipePad, Wave Launcher falls into that category, but, over time, theses grow way beyond the original intent, to the point where, as a user, installing these become a trade-off, after all, most users of launcher type app just want... well... launch apps!;)

Most apps in the Android ecosystem would benefit from having a 'core' version where all the fat is removed and only the core feature / function is exposed, Android OS make components cooperation not only possible but easy, there is in effect not need for 'do it all' apps most of the time.

I think part of the problem is that, as a developer, faced with an app that is successful or gaining attention, is it easy to get carried away and start implementing every single requested feature and more just to grab few thousand more users, even if it mean losing few hundreds of your core users base in the process

In my experience, requests / features can be categorized as follow:

- First you have bugs fix, general improvements requested by users, theses just build on top of the existing features and it is more and less your duty as a developer to address them as quickly as possible. This include 'niche' requests, for example for HomeFlip I had a request from a person, a war veteran, with an hand disability that prevented him from swiping tasks left and right with ease, I had to adapt various 'thresholds' in the UI logic in order for him to be comfortable using HomeFlip. Same goes to left-handed support.

- Then you have good and not so good ideas that are just beyond the scope of the app, For example, with HomeFlip I had that following requests: "Slide show of your photos in the background", "Display calendar reminders as tasks", etc... this is where I draw a line, cool or not, these feature would be nothing short of bloat in my opinion.

In the end, for a free app, I think one should focus on making whatever peoples using it happy and not go in a wild chase just to get the rush of seeing one's download stats increase like mad every day. Serve the few well is better than making everyone half content.

Note: I've made my 'views' appear more black and white than they actually are to make the discussion more interesting ;)

[Android Apps and Games] Icculus760:
I hate title lines :)

id0x12345 - just emailed you a feature request, but after reading this entire thread, especially your exchange with Ratlegion, I felt I should post here instead.

You described a few tiers of requests, and I'm wondering what your opinion is regarding an option to save the display order (if set to manual) and app's designated as 'favorites' -- which would be persistent (or recoverable) after version upgrades? Is there an increase in permissions or something else which you feel wouldn't make this a valid feature? Or should I just restore the app's data via Titanium B/U post-upgrade?

Thanks for the light & lean app!!

PS - also, thanks for having an option to disable the transition effect :good::laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
I have notice that, working on a fix,

In addition, many user complains about favorites getting lost on update (some actually threaten me:)), trying to fix this too.

Sorry.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Hopefully the latest version (1.24) should be the last one messing with your favorites / ordering, this do not require any special permissions, just for me to grow some more neurons :)

[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Compact mode has no swipe right-hide, left-favorite action. Intended this way?

All-apps becomes difficult to navigate in single column. Better, app-drawer style representation?

Swipe to start?

Taskarou, also a launcher overlay, has an activate switch. Might be a good idea. I have seen both in operation in parallel--some may like this, some might find it too much. They also have the option to fallback to ... the other instead of the regular launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] teocomi:
Some suggestions:

- keep launcher in memory, otherwise the fallback is Very slow

- grid layout (as Dovidhalevi is suggesting)

- a quick link to open the app drawer (eg a button on the bottom next to the other tools)

Eventually it'd be very cool to integrate as a real launcher ;)

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Yes, compact is intended to work this way, in the future, you will be enable to switch the compact mode on and off quickly without having to go to settings.

As for the 'all-apps' thingy, I agree, it is not really useful right now, drawer like UI would be a better choice and it as been requested few times.

Swipe to start?, on its way :)

I understand this, could you reformulate ?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Unfortunately, in the general case (i.e. stock rom), AFAIK it not possible to open the built-in app drawer, one as to (re)implement it...

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Taskarou has an active/inactive toggle. I think such is useful, especially if someone has more than one such goodie installed.
[Android Apps and Games] id0x12345:
Ok, got it. This is equivalent to settings activation mode to manual in HomeFlip (and I'll make sure that swipe to activate can be disable too when released).

Thanks.
